Performance Tracking
Performance tracking of budgets, quality and productivity are critical management process for any business. Monitoring and optimising process and equipment performance helps companies enhance operational efficiency, reducing downtime, and saving money for maintenance.
datumpin is revolutionising the way that businesses optimize and lock in best equipment performance with innovative tracking solutions to maximise equipment efficiency. datumpin solutions shine a light on hidden data, revealing actionable insights that drive efficiency gains without the need for expensive new investment in instrumentation or data networking.
Reveal Hidden Data
datumpin’s innovative technology leverages existing data sources that would otherwise remain hidden from sight. Our data acquisition technology provides detailed performance reporting from a rich curated data library created from your own programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and ancillary components.
Our reporting metrics are designed to alert users to deviations from center line performance, capturing issues before they escalate into expensive downtime, unbudgeted operational costs allowing businesses to react proactively before they become major problems. Reports can include detailed metrics such as:
• Real time energy consumption budget tracking comparing actual costs per product output to expected costs, alerting managers to cost deviations.
• Enhanced operator inspection reports, auto populating routine operator checklists and highlighting specific areas of concern to check during rounds and readings.
• Programmable logic sequence tracking, alerting operators to equipment and process failures within ladder logic chains to expedite fault finding and eliminate recurring faults.
Optimise Business Operations
datumpin creates bespoke data acquisition software for our clients in demanding industries like semiconductor manufacturing, drinking water treatment systems and waste water energy recovery plants to optimise business operations with comprehensive performance reports that are tailored to your regulatory requirements.
Our specialty is to enable our customers to regain original system performance through continuous comprehensive elimination of process interruptions, returning equipment to its original blueprint condition, and then maintaining those gains as business as usual.
Seamless Integration
datumpin embedded data memory (eDM) technology has been designed to seamlessly integrate into existing systems without the need for modifications to your PLC. This simple implementation means you can immediately start capturing millions of data points and benefit from unparalleled performance insights. We curate your data into years of searchable libraries to compare process performance across differing output demands and environmental conditions. We believe that our comprehensive data records and Edge Computing will enable future improvements from AI and machine learning advances, whilst always remaining compatible with your Enterprise Resource Management software packages.
The implementation process involves:
Step One - Work Plan
First, datumpin engineers will work with your team to develop a work plan that has been customised to your business goals and requirements.
Step Two - Developing Bespoke Data Memory
Next, datumpin will get to work developing a bespoke embedded data memory acquisition system once you have provided a copy of your PLC software. Do not worry if you do not have access to a copy - there is a secure local download service available from datumpin.
Step Three - Data Establishment
The final step is installing the eDM unit onto your PLC network. You will then be able to start capturing and storing PLC data in the eDM onboard data repository.
Once you are set up and running, datumpin can start generating performance reports that align with your operational goals. Armed with this information, you can start making intelligent decisions to improve and optimise the performance of your critical business equipment.
The Main Benefits of datumpin’s Performance Tracking
There are many good reasons to use datumpin’s innovative solutions for performance tracking. Here are a few of the key reasons to choose datumpin:
Improve business equipment performance: The technology allows you to gain a deeper understanding of your key equipment and processes with detailed reports and metrics. This allows you to improve operational efficiency, reduce downtime, and lower maintenance costs.
Cost efficiency: Seamless integration without the need for new instrumentation means that the solutions are also cost-efficient compared to other solutions.
Knowledge transfer: datumpin reveal the logic sequences programmed with your controllers, informing your staff why the equipment responds to external inputs and setpoint changes. This data visibility, revealed by datumpin shares previously hidden knowledge amongst operators, scientists and managers improving process understanding.
Premium cybersecurity: Businesses need to make sure that they are proactive when it comes to cybersecurity, especially regarding data protection. datumpin has a patented hardwire firewall that will keep your PLC safe with a tested transmit-only data link between your network and datumpin’s data storage. datumpin also use professional penetration testing agencies to rigorously test solutions to ensure complete protection against the latest cloud security threats.
